fun game, though the community block update a few years ago corrupted my almost 99% completed campaign. aside from that and a few orther major bugs (which is to be expected as the game is still marked "unstable" by the devs every update) for the rest its a pretty fun game, doesnt require a degree in rocket science to build something (like a game like stormworks: build and rescue does) and the campaign is lots of fun, really reccomend it also its commander shephard's favourite game on steam so that means you should spend your life savings on it :P

Not a game that requires much thought; mostly turns into which 'tech' has the most guns but still a very chill and fun experience if you enjoy building.

A fun sandbox game where you build war machines, collect resources and make factories. The thing I like to do most is building the biggest vehicle I can, and then put all my weapons on it to make a behemoth of destruction strong enough to win WW3 on its own.

OVERALL FUN. Kill the hostiles, scavage the remains, make yourself bigger, faster, stronger and better. dont worry, they die slowly for your satisfaction. no blood, no gore. just tech on tech slaughterfests. the evolution from small and scared to big bad boss guy is slow and annoying, but very much worth it...and so very satisfying

Yeah its pretty fun. but there's only one playstyle. i wish there was more options regarding being able to turn down the obnoxious enemy aggro and spawns, i tried to do a harvesting peaceful run, but no, enemies every 10 meters, and the ONLY way to deal with them is blow them up, so why have the entire crafting harvesting aspect if you harvesting craft needs to be shielded and armed to the teeth just to stand a chance of getting back to base with enough resources to cover what you lost getting them. TLDR, add settings to customise enemy spawning and AI
